    A Duress Password would be a good idea, so if you are ever asked to unlock your PC or phone you can use it to provide a sanitized sandbox view of your data or alternatively scramble/delete anything that would compromise you.

    There’s an interesting story about the Soviet defector that had a code like this where he was to walk down the street at a certain time holding a Safeway grocery bag (apparently this was not unusual even in Moscow to shop with an old American plastic bag), and he actually had to use this option and was subsequently exfiltrated from Russia.
